Guys I really don't get why Chord would release the TT at all...and with barely any improvements for me to justify it being 2x more expensive than the original... Also why would they release the 2Qute it has pretty much the same DAC in the hugo but in a price point that screams "0 value". I really don't get it.
they are three separate products that are aimed at customers with different needs, as follows:-
2Qute - dedicated non-portable DAC for people who have no requirement for a amplifier, primarily aimed at Hi-Fi & PC use... cheaper than Hugo & Hugo-TT.
Hugo - dedicated portable DAC/Amp that does everything & more (aimed at portable/transportable/desktop/system use), the proverbial 'Swiss Army knife' of the Hi-Fi industry... unbeatable 'bang for your bucks' value if you consider what Hugo does.
Hugo-TT - dedicated mid-sized desktop/system DAC/Amp that has 'transportable' capabilities if required (aimed at those requiring more power for heaphone use, can also be used as a hi-end Pre-Amp/DAC fronting a hi-fi system)... substantial case & component upgrade from diminutive Hugo, the 'flagship' of the Hugo range.
Hope this explains the Chord Electronics range more fully...
